About this house rental

Make a splash at this up north 1950s vintage cabin-style home on 100 feet of beautiful Long Lake. This vintage cottage has a great ‘step back in time’ feel, with many current updates to create an enjoyable stay. Splash Landing features 4-bedrooms and 2-bathrooms welcoming up to eight guests at a time.

Walk into the open living/dining room area, with lovely hardwood floors and large windows with a view of the lake. Plenty of room for eating, curling up by the wood-burning fireplace, or watching a good movie. To the right, there are two bedrooms on the main floor. The first bedroom has a queen bed and a twin bed, and the second has a queen bed. To the left of the living room, there is a large full kitchen with a dishwasher. The kitchen includes a breakfast area. A full bathroom with a shower/tub combo is to the left of the kitchen at the top of the steps leading to the basement.

The finished walk-out basement has plenty of room, a washer and dryer are under the stairs. There are two bedrooms on the basement level one with a queen bed; the second has a full bed. There is a sofa bed in the spacious lower-level family room. A full bath with a shower/tub combo is available on the lower level. This is a great location to enjoy some downtime, with lots of books to curl up with and board games too! And that is only the inside!

Outside beautiful Long Lake is waiting. There are a few steps down to the lake from the patio area. Swimming, boating, and fishing are just outside the door! A row boat for some fishing fun is included! The lake has a nice sandy bottom for the little ones. A charcoal grill and picnic table are available for an outdoor meal, and the firepit makes a perfect evening gathering place. A Dock and boat mooring is available and will accommodate up to a 17’ boat 3000lbs max. Do not tie up to the dock, it is for loading and unloading only. (Dock not guaranteed after Labor Day Weekend or before June 15) there is a camera facing the dock for security purposes.

This home is in a great location, an easy drive to Traverse City and all it has to offer or head to Interlochen or Honor. This home is 30 miles from Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park. Try South Long Lake Forest Natural Area for a family hike, it is less than five minutes away. Boone's Long Lake Inn is 1.5 miles down the road, or Taqueria TC Latino has great Mexican food, just 4 miles away!

Sorry no AC, fans provided. Your well-mannered dog is welcome. No Smoking.

We appreciated the updated stairs to the water. Our 4 days were comfortable and the kitchen had ever we needed.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Sep 2025
Lovely property for our family! The kitchen, however, was ill-supplied i.e. lots of mis-matched and/or lidless old pots and pans, all poorly organized - we had to search to find two decent fry pans, only one of which had a lid, and there are lots of spacious cabinets, largely empty, to search through. The kitchen table overlooking the lake was wonderful - we played a lot of cribbage there - and the little desk nook was perfect for our laptop. What a beautiful lake, and if the weather had cooperated we would have spent most of our time outdoors - unfortunately it was very cold and rainy. So nice to have a fireplace and lots of wood to take the chill off - a much-appreciated warm and cozy up-north vibe.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Ok but things didn’t work like tv in main room coffee put had a sign on it that it was broken luckily I was able to get ahold of management they sent over a new one , but I was surprised the cleaning lady didn’t report or replace it the floors were sticky and two of the fans were shot otherwise was pleasant.

Older “Vintage “ cottage. Needed 4 bedrooms for 8 (us, kids and spouses. ) Nice layout. Kitchen well supplied. Upper bedrooms were ok and comfortable. However the beds in the basement level were very uncomfortable, so much so that a couple of our kids slept on the sofas. Basement shower didn’t drain well, until my son pulled out a gob of hair from it. Overall could have used a better cleaning as there was a lot of dust and cob webs around. Nice lake front location and close to Traverse City.
